Basing myself and young family at beautiful Lake Hawea, Wanaka Wilderness Fly Fishing adventures regularly takes my clients and I into crystal clear back country waters that cover the Lower South island of New Zealand.

I specialize in remote wilderness fly fishing trips by helicopter, boat and 4WD covering the West coast, Southern lakes, Otago & Southland regions. Come and experience rivers flowing through ancient rain forests, golden tussock-fringed spring creeks, crystal clear rivers and streams cascading from snow capped mountains or the gentle streams and spring creeks that wind their way through lush, green lowlands, all home to wild Brown Trout and Rain bow Trout. My specialty is heli-fishing into the abundant wilderness rivers the above regions offer.
